Chapter 133: Mistakes Continuously in the Defense of Yacheng
The jungle troops did not wait for the independent assault brigade to arrive, and suddenly launched a fierce offensive!
The entire Soviet Union formed four jungle divisions, and all kinds of equipment were tailor-made. According to the Soviet Union's combat thinking, the jungle division was between conventional troops and mountain divisions, and was mainly used for combat in jungle and hilly areas.
Although it is called the Jungle Division, in order to facilitate jungle warfare, its weapons and equipment are different from those of other conventional divisions, and the proportion of heavy weapons is relatively small, but it does not mean that the firepower of the Jungle Division is weak!
The entire division has more than 11,500 people, and all of them are combat troops, with no baggage troops! Every combatant in the jungle division has extremely strong individual combat capabilities, and their personal carrying equipment weighs up to 95 kilograms! Ammunition and rations are all carried by themselves, and they are equipped with a large number of mules and horses!
The entire division was equipped with 5,000 mules and horses! Almost one mule and one horse for every two people!
Although there was no divisional heavy artillery, each company was equipped with a 60mm mortar platoon, and each regiment was also equipped with a Type 21 75mm mountain artillery company! This type of artillery was light and easy to assemble, and could be disassembled and carried away by four soldiers! But its power was not weak at all!
Gramovich did not wait for the slow-moving assault brigade; he gave the troops only three hours to deploy.
At three o'clock in the morning, when people are most sleepy, the jungle division launched a sudden blitzkrieg against Yacheng!
Fierce artillery fire poured down to the east of Yacheng!
That is the largest iron mine around Yacheng! Erdaogou Iron Mine!
Erdaogou Iron Mine is the largest magnetite mine discovered by Qian Ruojun in the vicinity of Yacheng!
The ore body is nearly 1.5 kilometers long from north to south, nearly 21 meters wide from east to west, and more than 80 meters at its widest point. The iron ore is shallowly buried and of high grade, making it a top-quality fine ore.
But at this moment, it suffered a devastating blow!
The security forces stationed here and the gold mining forces had not received any news of the Soviet invasion! They were completely unprepared!
The fierce attack almost razed the ground buildings of Erdaogou Iron Mine to the ground.
Ye Fan and Qian Ruojun are here!
Originally they came to check the exploration situation of the No. 2 ore vein. Yesterday, Ye Fan wanted to return to Yacheng overnight because he saw that the troops were mobilized very frequently recently, but Qian Ruojun wanted to stay and wait for the latest drilling data!
Ye Fan was worried, so he had to stay as well. He had to ensure Mr. Qian’s safety!
Who would have thought that something unexpected would happen!
"Mr. Qian! Mr. Qian!" Ye Fan shouted desperately. But it was too chaotic! The entire mining area was like a hell! Especially the explosives depot far away from the living area, which was hit by a shell and exploded! The two-story building in the entire accommodation area was almost razed to the ground!
"Mr. Qian!" Ye Fan almost cried out. He didn't dare to think about the consequences of losing Mr. Qian!
Li Wuguang stumbled over.
"Stop shouting! We can't care about so many things now! This is an attack! The enemy will definitely attack soon! You should retreat with your men!" Li Wuguang gave the crazy Ye Fan a big slap in the face and said loudly.
"How can we explain this if we can't find Professor Qian?" Ye Fan said sadly.
"Think about how to save the Erdaogou Iron Mine first, and how to save your life first!" Li Wuguang shouted, "Someone, take Dean Ye and retreat! Everyone else, follow me!"
The workers at Erdaogou Iron Mine are also equipped with weapons and take time out for military training, which are finally put to use now!
"Commander! We can't retreat, we are surrounded!" said a worker.
"Enter the tunnel! Everyone enter the tunnel!" Li Wuguang shouted.
He led everyone back into the tunnel.
The jungle army did not deploy too many troops in Erdaogou Iron Mine, only less than one regiment.
The rest of the troops did not stop at all and headed straight for Yacheng!
Everyone in Yacheng knew that something terrible had happened, but there was only one person who didn't know!
That is Wang Dingguo, who is in charge of the defense of Yacheng!
He was drunk in a house at the moment! This was the mistress he found after arriving in Yacheng!
At the welcoming banquet in Yacheng to welcome him to the garrison, Wang Dingguo saw this woman at first sight! He couldn't take his eyes away!
The woman also secretly fell in love with this young teacher, and the two of them were like dry wood meeting a raging fire! It didn't take long for them to get together!
Here, Wang Dingguo experienced a pleasure he had never experienced before! The beauty under him made him unable to stop!
He sneaked over again last night! He drank and talked with the beauty until the second half of the night, and had a passionate battle. Now he just fell into a deep sleep.
The deafening sound of artillery fire did not wake up the sleeping Wang Dingguo.
The adjutant at the door didn't dare to knock on the door and disturb his superior's sweet dream!
It was not until nine o'clock the next morning that Wang Dingguo woke up comfortably!
He was startled by the fierce gunfire outside.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Wang Dingguo asked anxiously.
"Commander, I'm so scared! This happened suddenly in the middle of the night last night. I was scared to death!"
"Get out! Damn it! What time is it! Why didn't you call me!" Wang Dingguo cursed angrily.
"Adjutant, Adjutant! Are you fucking dead? Why didn't you call me! Go back to the division headquarters!" Wang Dingguo cursed.
On the way back to the division headquarters, Wang Dingguo was heartbroken. There were ruins everywhere! There were cries everywhere! The Yashan City was bombed! Where did the enemy come from? He had sent heavy troops to guard the north and south, and there was a cliff to the east! Where did the enemy come from!
When I walked into the division headquarters, it was already in chaos, with all kinds of phone calls and shouting.
Chief of Staff Yu Zhendong sat weakly in front of the sand table.
"What's going on! What's going on!" Wang Dingguo shouted.
"Commander! You're finally back!" Yu Zhendong said loudly, pulling Wang Dingguo into the next room and closing the door.
"What are you doing? Sneaking around!" Wang Dingguo said dissatisfiedly.
"Commander, something big has happened! We lost the Erdaogou Iron Mine! I did not inform the Gold Corps of the recent enemy movements! Dean Ye Fan and Professor Qian Ruojun went to the Erdaogou Iron Mine yesterday! Now Professor Qian Ruojun's life or death is unknown!" Yu Zhendong said quickly.
"Oh no! I thought the gold troops were just mining troops, so I forgot about them! What should I do now?" Wang Dingguo said, patting his forehead.
"Commander, the enemies are right in front of us! This is not important. Now we have to find a way to defend Yacheng City, and then get Ye Fan and the others..." Yu Zhendong made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"Ah? What are you going to do!?"
Wang Dingguo was stunned.
"Don't be confused, Commander! If we let them come back alive and expose our mistakes, do you think the Fuehrer will let us go?"
"But...but..."
"Commander! There's nothing to worry about! We just don't need to rescue them! We don't have to do anything!"
"I know nothing!" After saying that, Wang Dingguo opened the door and went out.
"Fuck! This trash! Coward! Damn it!" Yu Zhendong cursed secretly as he looked at Wang Dingguo's back.
